This (Gems Of Wisdom) is a
new year's gift from the ages. It is not a simple copy-and-paste job. I
have vetted every line and considered it in depth before its inclusion,
and have rejected some from even luminaries such as Einstein and Lao
Tzu. I hope this will help with your new year's resolution, your search
for meaning and your fight for the animals.

This is of course far from comprehensive. Certain historical
superstars e.g. Jesus Christ and Mohammed are not included, but they are
generous enough to yield the room to those who are just as wise, but not
quite so already over-exposed. Nor have I included any quotes from the
AR movement, since it strength is not in words, but in action.

If you are recipient to this, you are already wise beyond your years,
far ahead of your time, and have taken on much in leading the evolution
of humanity. Thank you all for what you do. Best for 2008 onwards.
